Yeah, but just think about it: Velvia 100 in your 110 camera! As for the backing paper, couldn't I just put some thick black tape over the window and count frames if I really needed to? Looking inside my Auto110, I don't see anything that would need to touch the film itself for the camera to function. There's a little gear in the left film chamber, which I'm assuming is turned by the spool inside the 110 cassette. I'll have to open a 110 cassette to make sure this'll work, and I'm really hoping it does. The tiny size of the negative combined with the utter graininess of the crappy Kodak films most often available these days make for really lousy images.
